Price of Doing Business
I went to my bathroom this morning and was startled to discover a blood stain on the door. I don't remember stabbing anyone at my doorsteps. The blood, it appears, came as a result of a cut on my thumb. How it drifted and flowed all the way down to the foot of the door, I am not sure. All I know is that furniture assembly is a dangerous business, even when it is something as innocuous as a small nightstand with but one drawer. Such a process can take entire afternoons and lead to deep cuts and dramatic rivers of blood as one attempts to rip open a band aid one-handed (Band-Aid brand band aids don't come with easy-pull tabs anymore, which led to a great struggle). And yes, furniture assembly becomes exponentially more difficult and dangerous when it is done with one hand/thumb elevated to prevent further bloodbaths. Said Father, "See, your father is good for some things, right?" He is greatly missed down here in B'more.
